Chapter 2 Brother Huo Qu's illness

When he saw a group of soldiers appear at the gate of the courtyard, Ah Guang's joy was overflowing, and he couldn't understand the steel war horse, and he didn't have time to ask.

Look at it again, there are military flags swaying with the breeze, and the characters Huo are written on them.

What else can be wrong with that?

The leader, the heroic young man who is seven or eight points similar to his father and himself, who else can he be?

I almost shouted out in excitement, but in order to avoid revealing the identity of the traverser, I held back.

Huo Zhongru pulled Huo Guang back, quickly blocked the door, and inserted the latch firmly in the door.

"You're going to die, you dare to open the door without even seeing who it is, a group of soldiers outside, half of the soldiers don't know it, what if it's a group of stragglers who rob homes and houses." Huo Zhongru reprimanded Ah Guang.

Ah Guang was a little helpless: "Father, in the case of our family, the bandits shook their heads when they came to see it, and this is in the county, if the stragglers came in, the whole city would have been in chaos." ”

Outside the courtyard, Huo Quzhi saw the reaction of the two, and then looked back at his group of people and understood the other party's concerns.

With just a mask, he knew that the person who opened the door just now should be his younger brother, after all, he looked very similar, and Huo Zhongru's genes were very strong.

"Dismount."

With Huo Quai's simple words, all the soldiers executed together, turned over and dismounted, and were heroic.

Huo Qubing walked forward, and the soldiers wanted to follow, but the young general stretched out his hand to signal them to stop, and walked into the courtyard by himself.

As he walked, he looked at the depressed yard, and he didn't expect his father to live so poorly, and he felt compassion.

At this time, the county guard of Hedong County rushed over in a panic, he learned the news of Huo Qu's illness, and hurried here, such a small place rarely comes to such a big person.

Huo Quai's coming here is equivalent to the main military chief of the country to a prefecture-level city with average development.

The county guard wanted to say hello to Huo Quai, but was stopped by Huo Quai's personal guards and signaled him not to move yet.

Huo Quzhi walked to the door of Huo Zhongru, a little excited, stretched out his hand and stopped in mid-air, seemed to be a little hesitant, it was rare to see such an indecisive moment for this young general who was known for his vigorous and resolute actions.

Before Huo Qu's illness could slam the door, the door creaked open, and it was Huo Guang who opened the door again.

Fang was behind the door, Huo Guang persuaded Huo Zhongru to open the door, it was a blessing or a curse, it was a disaster that could not be avoided, but Huo Zhongru couldn't open it.

"Father, they are carrying knives, our door can't be blocked, open the door yourself to make a good impression and try to save your life."

Huo Zhongru felt that it made sense, if the dozen or so heavily armed soldiers on the other side really came at him, he wouldn't be able to run away behind closed doors.

He asked himself that there was nothing wrong with being a man except for receiving some small favors from merchants, even if he wanted to arrest himself, he would not be in such a big battle, so he simply listened to Huo Guang's words and opened the door.

When the three of them met for the first time, some people were excited, some were embarrassed, and some were embarrassed.

You look at me, I look at you, the three of them looked at each other and were silent for a while.

Huo Guang can understand Huo Quzhi's current mood, although he is a general, but it is the first time for him to recognize his father, and he is a little cramped without experience, which is normal.

"Dare to ask the general, is there something about calling my father's name just now?"

Huo Quzhi's eyes bypassed Huo Guang, and he looked at Huo Zhongru with a particularly hot look, and his excited voice trembled a little: "Dare... Dare... Dare to ask... Your Excellency was... Huo Zhongru, who used to be an errand boy in Princess Pingyang's mansion. ”

Huo Guang could see that he was already trying his best to keep his composure, and if Huo Quai's subordinates saw that his general couldn't speak well, his jaw would definitely drop in shock.

Is this hesitant teenager still the general Huo Quai, who is not smiling and decisive?

It's just his crampedness and nervousness that makes Huo Guang feel that he has more youthful sincerity.

At this time, he was not a champion marquis, not a hussar general, not a young hero who fought in the desert at a young age, he was just a boy who had just found his father.

When Huo Quzhi said the Pingyang Princess Mansion, Huo Zhongru's mind seemed to have countless past events flashing like a movie, and the memories came layer upon layer, turning into a gentle reply: "Hmm." ”

Huo Quai's cloak flicked, his armor rattled, and after getting the answer he wanted, he immediately knelt on one knee and saluted Huo Zhongru.

"The child Huo is sick, please see Father."

Huo Zhongru didn't hear what Huo Quzhi said at all, and when he knelt down, he immediately reached out to help, he couldn't stand this gift.

"Huh? What did you say? Huo Zhongru, who reacted, looked at Huo Quai's illness suspiciously.

Huo Qu said angrily: "Child, Huo Quai, please see Father." ”

Huo Zhongru looked at the young man in front of him who was very similar to himself in shock, and then looked at Huo Guang, in terms of appearance, the young general kneeling in front of him was more like himself than his own son.

"The general will get up first, and we will talk slowly if we have something to say." Huo Zhongru didn't care about anything else, and persuaded Huo Qubing first.

Huo Quzhi stood up, and from his eyes, he could see that he was very emotional now, and swallowed his saliva involuntarily.

"General, why do you call me Father? What does this have to do with Princess Binh Duong's Mansion? Huo Zhongru was a little puzzled in the face of Huo Quai, who suddenly came to recognize his father.

"Father, you just told me to go sick, Father still remembers the Wei Shao'er in Princess Pingyang's Mansion back then."

As soon as this name appeared, Huo Zhongru felt as if he had been shocked, and his brain was empty in an instant.

"Father."

"Father."

Huo Guang called Huo Zhongru over from the empty state, and Huo Zhongru looked at Huo Quzhi with a stirring spirit: "You... You're Wei Shao'er..."

"Yes, Father, I am a mother and your child, your first child."

Huo Zhongru, who was full of shock, said hesitantly: "How is it possible, how is it possible, obviously just once... My first time..."

Huo Zhongru in 100 shots.

No matter how you say it, the appearance of the young man in front of you can basically be determined to be his son, and the cause and effect also make sense, and it is right.

And if he is a general, can he still take advantage of himself by recognizing his relatives indiscriminately?

"Go sick, Father didn't know about you, otherwise he wouldn't..." Huo Zhongru was confused for a while, his emotions came quickly, and his eyes were already red.

Huo Zhongru accepted the speed of having a general's son and Huo Guang accepted the speed of his own crossing.

Huo Qu hurriedly said: "Father doesn't have to explain, Mother told me before she died, you don't know that there is me, she and Father you were in love with each other back then, but she is a maid in the princess's mansion, and she can't be privately decided for life, and finally the two of you separated, at that time, Mother concealed that she was pregnant, but fortunately, later the aunt got the grace of God, and with the protection of the aunt, Mother had the opportunity to give birth to a child smoothly." ”

Huo Guang couldn't help but sigh that this Wei Shao'er was also an infatuated woman, secretly pregnant and gave birth to a son in this era, which is equivalent to putting her lifelong happiness on the line, and after so many years, she still insists on letting Huo go to the sick surname Huo, which is not affectionate.

Huo Quzhi saw Huo Zhongru for the first time, he has been a fatherless child for so many years, and it is inevitable to take a few more glances and secretly look at his father when he sees him for the first time.

"Huh? Your mother..."

Huo Quzhi said regretfully: "My mother has an old illness and left three months ago. ”

"Gone?" Huo Zhongru stayed in place for a while, as if his soul had been sucked away.

His mother kept silent about Huo Zhongru before, he always thought that Huo Zhongru had abandoned their orphans and widows, and it wasn't until Wei Shao'er died that he didn't know that Huo Zhongru didn't know about his existence at all, and he wasn't abandoned.

The resentment that had been pent up in his heart for a long time also dissipated without a trace, it turned out that his mother and son were not abandoned, and his father was not a ruthless and unrighteous person.

Originally, I wanted to come to Huo Zhongru before, but I was busy with official business, and this time I happened to pass by with something to do, so I took the time to come over.

After learning the news of Huo Zhongru, he asked someone to inquire about Huo Zhongru's news in many ways, and her mother knew that Huo Zhongru was in Hedong County, which showed that her mother actually knew where her father was, but she didn't recognize each other.

Huo Quzhi looked at Huo Guang, the two brothers looked at each other, Huo Quzhi looked at his half-brother a little cramped, just smiled slightly, he knew that Huo Guang's mother died after giving birth to Huo Guang.

Huo Quzhi said to Huo Guang: "You... Your name is Ah Guang. ”

"Yes, my name is Huo Guang."

"Hmm... You're a lot like your father. ”

"The general is more like."

The conversation between the two was a little awkward, and Huo Quzhi obviously had no experience in communicating with his half-brother, but this cramped tension made Huo Guang feel that Huo Quzhi had the sincerity of a teenager, and there was no unpleasant sleek sophistication.

"General, can I follow you into battle?"
